The second they left, she immediatley did a huge smelly poop in her diaper and I had no idea what to do! It was before texting so I didn't want to call my sister just to ask her so I went for it - I changed the diaper (my first time!) and she didn't even wake up. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/your-baby-pooped-in-the-middle-of-the-night-but-is-sleeping-do-you-change-her#post-264402 Mon, 20 Aug 2012 09:40:09 +0000 mrs. wagon 264402@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I almost always left him, until he was older and got prone to diaper rashes. Then we changes him at midnight every night and he almost always had a poop at that time. He always went right back to sleep. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/your-baby-pooped-in-the-middle-of-the-night-but-is-sleeping-do-you-change-her#post-264394 Mon, 20 Aug 2012 09:30:48 +0000 Mrsbells 264394@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes I would wake her up to change her, her skin is very sensitive and I wouldnt want her to get a rash </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/your-baby-pooped-in-the-middle-of-the-night-but-is-sleeping-do-you-change-her#post-264354 Mon, 20 Aug 2012 08:55:18 +0000 Rubies 264354@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would change her - LO would just go right back to sleep! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/your-baby-pooped-in-the-middle-of-the-night-but-is-sleeping-do-you-change-her#post-264352 Mon, 20 Aug 2012 08:54:12 +0000 Mrs. Yoyo 264352@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I unwittingly did this not long ago, and it led to our first case of diaper rash :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/your-baby-pooped-in-the-middle-of-the-night-but-is-sleeping-do-you-change-her#post-264349 Mon, 20 Aug 2012 08:51:36 +0000 winniebee 264349@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I may be in the minority but I say leave her! If you were both sleeping and she pooped, you would never know and you wouldn't change her! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/your-baby-pooped-in-the-middle-of-the-night-but-is-sleeping-do-you-change-her#post-264286 Mon, 20 Aug 2012 07:51:52 +0000 regberadaisy 264286@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>With my state of mind today...leave her! And there's been SO many times we were convinced it was poop but it was just a really smelly fart! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/your-baby-pooped-in-the-middle-of-the-night-but-is-sleeping-do-you-change-her#post-264283 Mon, 20 Aug 2012 07:50:50 +0000 pastemoo 264283@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hah. I started a thread like this a few weeks ago, but it was at naptime... It depends on what part of the night. Will she wake up soon, nurse and fall asleep? Then yes, change her.<br /> Is she in deep sleep with a chance of sleeping through the changing? Change her. (Also if she is prone to rash, but you would have mentioned that).</p> <p>Otherwise... no.</p> <p>Remember when she was a newborn and EVERY diaper was a poopy diaper and you didn't even know if she pooped just now or not? And you just changed the baby on a schedule? She survived that. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/your-baby-pooped-in-the-middle-of-the-night-but-is-sleeping-do-you-change-her#post-264277 Mon, 20 Aug 2012 07:45:04 +0000 Maysprout 264277@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My LO gets a bright red butt from poop so I'd change her. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/your-baby-pooped-in-the-middle-of-the-night-but-is-sleeping-do-you-change-her#post-264219 Mon, 20 Aug 2012 06:01:40 +0000 mrstilly 264219@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would change him. I couldn't sleep knowing he had a poopy diaper. He will usually sleep through a diaper change if it's the middle of his night. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/your-baby-pooped-in-the-middle-of-the-night-but-is-sleeping-do-you-change-her#post-264216 Mon, 20 Aug 2012 05:41:45 +0000 Andrea 264216@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It has never happened but I think I would change her. It would not be worth getting a diaper rash. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/your-baby-pooped-in-the-middle-of-the-night-but-is-sleeping-do-you-change-her#post-264215 Mon, 20 Aug 2012 05:22:56 +0000 mynoahbear 264215@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've changed her at night when she's pooped and she barely woke up and went right back to sleep after the change. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/your-baby-pooped-in-the-middle-of-the-night-but-is-sleeping-do-you-change-her#post-264214 Mon, 20 Aug 2012 05:08:07 +0000 IcebergMom 264214@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>if it were close to normal wakeup time I'd probably leave it! eek! thats the toughest parental decision (haha!) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/your-baby-pooped-in-the-middle-of-the-night-but-is-sleeping-do-you-change-her#post-264192 Mon, 20 Aug 2012 01:58:45 +0000 looch 264192@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, I'd change...my son gets a rash when he stays in a poop diaper too long. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/your-baby-pooped-in-the-middle-of-the-night-but-is-sleeping-do-you-change-her#post-264191 Mon, 20 Aug 2012 01:54:34 +0000 Mrs. Bee 264191@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I can smell olive's poop!
